Electrical Requirements

The ambient operational temperature should be between 50and 100. The

operating water temperature should be between 41and 90. Operation

outside these temperatures may result in lowered production or other adverse effects.

In general, it is always a good idea to filter the water. A water filter can remove taste

and odors as well as particles. Where water is very hard, softened water may result in white, mushy cubes that stick together. Deionized water is not recommended.

The ice maker must be installed with all electrical and water connections in accordance with state and local codes.

The unit should be located on a firm and level surface. It is important for the ice maker

to be level in order to work properly. If needed, you can adjust the height of the ice maker by rotating the feet. See the “Leveling the Ice Maker” section.

A standard electrical supply (115 VAC only, 60 Hz, 15 A), properly grounded in accordance with National Electrical Code and local codes and ordinances is required.

IMPORTANT: Do not kink or pinch the power supply cord between the ice maker and wall or cabinet.
